James was not ready to be back at work; Reynolds had a lot of shit to give him about taking a week off with Thomas.

"Can you shut up?" James shoved past him to his desk. "Just for one second?"

"Why? You getting embarrassed?" Reynolds kept teasing. "Don't want everyone to know about your boyfriend?"
James stopped and spun around.

"No, actually, I don't care who knows." James stated. "Everyone! I have a boyfriend!" He shouted, everyone looked to him for a moment then returned to their work.
"I'm simply sick of your shit."
The smirk completely fell from Reynolds' face, James smirked and turned away, continuing to his desk and opening his laptop.

Then he let out the deep breath he'd been holding. Looking back quickly, he couldn't see Reynolds anywhere but he spotted Jack Kelly. He smiled at James approvingly and James felt quite proud of himself.

Time skip bc i only wanted Jemmy to stand up for himself

When James got home he was ready to drop onto his bed and fall alseep. He was not ready for a crying  Charles knocking at his door.

"Charles! What's wrong?" James asked when he opened the door for Charles. Charles shook his head and passed into James' apartment. 

"I h-hate," hiccup, "Aaron." Charles said as he dropped onto James' couch.

"What are you talking about?" James sat beside him. "Did something happen?" Charles nodded shortly, hiccupping bc that's just fucking adorable.  "Tell me what happened."

"T-Theo saw us k-kiss," hiccup,  "and Aaron got m-mad with me," he began telling James. "He pushed m-me away and y-yelled at me for kissing him. He s-said he didn't  love me."

"Oh, Charles." James pulled his sobbing friend into his arms.  Charles cried into his chest.

"This is my fault," he mumbled through his tears. "I hate him..."

"You don't mean that," James cooed. "You know you don't, you're just upset."

"I thought that, m-maybe this relationship will work out," Charles told James as he choked back another sob. "That it won't end badly like... like the rest." Charles burst into tears again. "I can't take another heartbreak. I just want someone who won't hurt me."

Charles didn't know what was going through his head but he leaned forward quickly and kissed James. Surprised, James didn't pull away.

After a moment Charles pulled back, a guilty look of regret painted across his face. "I'm sorry!" He cried.

James pulled him into a hug, "Shh, it's okay. It's okay."


Thomas finished his shift well into the evening and was very glad to be home. He was tired and wanted to just sleep but his bag was still packed from the road trip and he knew he'd have to wash his clothes. A he unpacked the bag he found one of James' shirts and figured he put in his bag by mistake.

He decided to return it to James then, so he had an excuse to see him at such a late hour. He washed the shirt with his clothes and took it from the dryer while it was still damp before leaving his apartment and heading down to his car.

He hummed to songs on the radio until he arrived at James' complex and took the elevator up to his floor. James' door stood slightly open, Thomas figured he wouldn't need to knock and wandered in.

He opened his mouth to call James' name and right as he did he neared the lounge room and saw James with Charles, kissing.

Anger and sadness bubbled inside him, he turned quickly and left the apartment.
